<RQI>Mucko 2 Posted August 1, 2012 Before anyone asks, no I do not server hop which could cause eating and drinking from saving. Literally every 30 minutes (non-running) I now require food and water. I feel like I should change my name to fat albert or something. Thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheStoryteller01 12 Posted August 1, 2012 We have a 1:1 day/night cycle, but a 7:1 food/drink cycle.Be glad, resting is no requirement yet. Otherwise you would simply starve in your sleep ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Siberian (DayZ) 527 Posted August 1, 2012 ive wondered this same thing..the food/water regs. seem set to high..i like needing to find it to survive, but it does seem like its currently a endless search for the next meal. with little time for anything else.

zerocode@ntlworld.com 5 Posted August 1, 2012 I ran for 2 hours straight a few nights back, I drank before I started and I needed a drink after I got to my destination. Seems about right considering the bad implementation of canteens. I walked around a town for 3 hours the following day, trying to find someone who was trying to kill me. I needed 2 drinks in that space of time which again seems about right. The only gripe I have with the drinking is that, while I would drink a can of coke pretty quickly, a canteen of water should be used to sip and maintain hydration, not chug a litre when you're so thirsty it's life threatening and then it'll all be okay. Requiring 5 meals a day though, regardless of activity level, that's ridiculous. Would like to see vomiting implemented as gorging yourself constantly is a terrible mechanic for staying alive.

Siberian (DayZ) 527 Posted August 1, 2012 im pretty sure my guy can go from food n drink and have both be red again in under 45mins. and i NEVER really run long distances or fight for long stretchs..i can literaly go from one small village to another and already need food n drink again..its one long vicisous cycle.. i like the mechanic, i just think it needs a little taming is all.having to eat/drink every few hours seems more in line then what im expereiencing currently..but perhaps my toon is a fat bastard, hahah Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
